        The stay here is comfy and beautiful for our royal room which had a glass see through to give a greenery n Bay view. The food here is tasty and worth it. Service is like ' Always ready to hear and help you'. Though locationwise it's bit distant from market area but easily accessible and just 10 mins distant from airport and quite close to Jetty. Overall I would rate awesome so far for the hotels and resorts stay in island.

        Hotel was convenient for jetty and airport and staff will try their best to accommodate our needs. Price was bit higher comparative to the room size Because of the staff and the place of the hotel alone I would recommend to stay
